As I have bought 6 of these for use by my 15 year old pupils, I have been very impressed by how easy they are to use (the pause function is useful), and download via the integral USB

Good points:

I have been very pleased with the result achieved from a value priced unit.Ease of use and value for money are strong pointsThe ability to purchase an SD card to expand the memory is a great asset.Works well with rechargeable batteries.

Bad points:

I find the screen brightness to be lacking especially in bright operating conditions making picture composition difficult. With practice it is possible to determine the desired angle to shoot a scene by sighting over the top of the camera.Some form of manual view finder would be a desirable addition.I would be prepared to accept a shorter battery life for higher screen brilliance.

Good points:

Lightweight and easy to use.

Bad points:

Very easy to switch it on accidentally. Needs a stronger case.Won't store to the memory card which I bought at an additional cost, so still limited to just one hour of recording instead of the 5 it hours it states.If you leave it in "pause" too long in between recordings, it switches off. Result - lots of small videos that you cannot join up as one.Instruction manual not too helpful.Not that good on a very sunny day - you can't see what you're recording on the screen.

Score 8.0/10

Good points:

Small.light, easy to control once various buttons are understood. Please note, they were understood instantly by my son, who knows I am stupid about modern technology. But he forgets that it was I who taught him how to use our original cinecamera when I was the age he is now. I wonder how quick he will be to pick up on new inventions when he is 83!

Bad points:

Although the instructions were quite clear they would have been easier to follow on bigger pages and with a bigger illustration.Picture was disappointingly small on computer (Though great on TV, Size could have been indicated in the instructions)

Score 10.0/10

Good points:

nice handbag size - quality excellant either through computer or tv with instructions even I can understand!

The Pro also comes with a web photo button, which allows you to take still photos, while its flip-out screen, rotating to 180 degrees, allows for self-recording!

Thanks to the disgo Video Pros built-in editing application, there is no CD installation required. You can simply create, edit adn upload your very own movie to the web in minutes. disgo Video Pro comes complete with a direct Youtube link once your PC is connected to the internet.

Compared to its colleague, the disgo Video Live (Coming Soon), the disgo Video Pro offers twice as much recording time. With 120 minutes of recording via the 1GB Micro SD card (included), the disgo Video Pro can be increased up to an enormous 16 hours recording by simple inserting an 8GB Micro SD card (sold separately). So that’s twice the recording capability of the disgo Video Live for much less than twice the price!

We searched for this product high and low,
from House of Fraser to Tesco,
no one is selling it, we're sorry to say,
not 419 retailers nor anyone on eBay,
but please don't worry even if it hurts,
you can look for alternatives or
